I do not want Plushenko to win another gold. Enuff Russian federation corruption crap already!!!!

I really wish Jeff Buttle would come back, finally land a 3 axel consistently, maybe a quad too, and really show 'em how it's done! But I digress.

I really don't have any animus toward any of the other men...as long as they turn in 2 dynamic performances, they should be in the running for a medal...

On the ladies side, I am not happy that Yu Na Kim is the darling of so many and it's considered a fait accompli for her to win the gold. I root for the underdog! Let me also say the 2006 Olympics fizzled, not sizzled, esp. in the Ladies event.

So regardless of who wins what, let's hope for some exciting events and virtuoso performances!

I don't have a nightmare podium for the ladies. I think that says a lot about the field. I think any of the top ten ranked ladies could end up with a medal & I'd be fine with that, so long as their skating on those days makes them worthy. My nightmare would be people winning when they really don't deserve it.

Men:
1. Joubert
2. Weir
3. Plushenko

Pairs:
1. Kavaguti and Smirnov
2. Mukhortova and Trankov
3. Zhangs

Don't hate the Chinese. Just don't want them behind the Russians; the Russiands on top and no medal for Shen & Zhao. That's my nightmare.

Dance
1. Domnina and Shabalin
2. Belbin and Agosto
3. Any of the Italian or French teams

With Virtue/Moir, Davis/White off the podium. I really don't think that'll happen but you just never know when it comes to dance!
